The police are investigating complaints filed by several female employees who claim they were sexually harassed by a former Knesset member who has been holding a prominent position in the Israeli economy for the last few years. Most complained of verbal abuse, but one said that there was an attempt at physical harassment.

The former MK denied the allegations: "This is a premeditated and baseless attack, meant only to prevent the extension of my service at my current position." (Eli Senyor)
